While there are universal commonalities regarding imaging informatics, outpatient imaging centers often have different resources and challenges from hospitals and integrated healthcare delivery systems.   At SIIM, the Imaging Center roundtable provides a forum to share best practices and review digital imaging challenges with SIIM colleagues from other outpatient practices.  Specifically we will talk about how to measure and improve efficiency using tools like RIS, PACS and VR, discuss the role of data warehouses and business intelligence to analyze these data, as well as see how these measurements can aid in the marking of an imaging center practice.

Objectives:
1. Review opportunities for utilizing imaging informatics to achieve improved efficiency in the Imaging Center.
2. Discuss ideas for marketing an imaging center practice by utilizing data to determine areas of opportunity.
